Adding information to Grand Army Plaza page

Some things that I would like to contribute to the Grand Army Plaza page of Wikipedia is more on the history of how the Grand Army Plaza came to be. Along with this, I would add more information on the architecture within the plaza. I might talk about the political and historical aspects of the Grand Army Plaza as well.

Move to Grand Army Plaza (Brooklyn)?

Should this page be moved to

Grand Army Plaza (Brooklyn) to disambiguate from Grand Army Plaza (Manhattan)? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 20:12, 24 February 2020 (UTC)[reply

I know of only two GAPs, of which one is near where I'm sitting and the other in Brooklyn. In colloquial talk, my neighbors usually call the one near us by a more complex locution such as, "In front of the Plaza Hotel". Jim.henderson (talk) 06:06, 9 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
